Alice’s Story

Alice was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2013 while she was still working. As the tremors worsened, she realized she needed to retire.

Alice was determined to figure out how to improve her life despite the new challenge of Parkinson’s disease. After some research, she found the Delay the Disease(TM) program at the Y and enrolled.

Since entering the class, Alice has made countless friends in class and has found a way to improve her life by working out. Her doctor is thrilled with the results and tells her to keep it up because it’s working.

Thanks to the Y, Alice can keep growing, improving, and slow down the Parkinson’s and has proved to her she can live a full life!
